Happy Anniversary to Us!

On Sunday we celebrated our 1 year anniversary! I’m still in awe that a whole year has passed. And any day now Baby G will arrive and give us new adventures in love.

The last line has probably answered all your questions…No, the baby hasn’t come yet. :) I’m 3-4 cm dialated as of Monday, but I have not really experienced any contractions since then…so we probably haven’t progressed much. During this time I’m reminded of the readings during Advent when we hear of the second coming of Christ…”You know not the hour or the day…”

So I’ve been accused of “nesting.” I think that’s all hogwash. It’s not that there’s this innate feeling to tidey up. For me, it’s been taking a good look at the house and saying, “Oh my, after the baby comes I won’t have any time to clean the house…better do it now! What’s worse, all these people are going to be visiting us and I can’t have the house all a mess!” I must admit, it keeps me from going nutty during the day.

We’ve received a few offers to help us out. If you REALLY want to help, shoot us an email and let us know. Probably the best thing you can do, while we’re still adjusting, is cook us a meal. Doesn’t have to be fancy. Just something to get Adam an evening so we don’t have to have soup and grilled cheese sandwiches.
